Match Preview
The Canaries welcome FC Girondins Bordeaux to the Stade de la Beaujoire on Sunday for this Ligue 1 match. Recently, Nantes have struggled to find a win in this fixture. The last 14 league matches between the two sides have seen just two Nantes wins. Although, this includes a comfortable 3-0 on the last visit of Bordeaux here back in May 2021.
FC Nantes come into the match on a run of three league games without a win. They have picked up five points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.
La Maison Jaune lost their last league match away to Olympique Marseille. Expected goals of 3.1 to 0.6 in favour of Marseille indicates perhaps it was a fair result. Nantes were the architects of their own downfall, twice taking the lead only to hand Marseille a penalty each time to get back level in the match. The final score of the match was 3-2.
Randal Kolo Muani is FC Nantes’s top scorer with twelve goals in Ligue 1 this season and is the 2.375/1 favourite to score against FC Girondins Bordeaux on Sunday.
Their opponent on Sunday, FC Girondins Bordeaux, come into the match on a run of seven away league games without a win. They have picked up five points from a maximum of 18 from their last six Ligue 1 matches.
The Girondins shared the points in their last league match at home to AS Saint-Etienne, in a four-goal thriller. Expected goals of 0.9xG apiece highlights how evenly matched the two sides were on the balance of chances created making a draw a fair result in the end. Gaetan Poussin in Les Girondins’ goal may be concerned about his performance. He conceded two goals from the only two shots on target he faced resulting in his side throwing away their two-goal lead. The final score of the match was 2-2.
Jean Onana has been catching the eye lately and is linked away with a move to the Premier League potentially on the card in the summer. The defensive midfielder scored Bordeaux’s second here and is 5/1 to grab another goal against FC Nantes on Sunday.

FC Nantes team news
Marcus Coco had an eventful evening against Marseille, scoring Nantes’s second goal before later seeing red deep in injury-time. He also sprained his ankle during the game. All this means Nantes will now be without him for today’s match and possibly longer.
FC Nantes may look to make a few additional unforced changes to the side who lost against Olympique Marseille in their last league match. Quentin Merlin in particular caught the eye in his 20-minute cameo at the end.
FC Girondins Bordeaux team news
Injuries will rule out Timothée Pembélé (cruciate ligament injury) for the trip to the Stade de la Beaujoire.
They may look to shuffle their deck voluntarily having drawn against AS Saint-Etienne in their last league match. Tom Lacoux had a particularly poor game and provided no threat at all from the right-wing before being replaced 15 minutes from time.
